New Easter Punch Pieces

I was experimenting this week and trying some new designs. The first is a rabbit pillow. I love how this one came out and the stain I used.This is what is called java stain, it is a greenish black antiquing medium.I am thinking I might put this piece up for sale.

This is what the back looks like. I used ticking and floss to stitch my initials and the date.I would put it up tonight, but it is late and I am too lazy to work up an ebay sale tonight;)I am always open to offers, so if anyone is interested in this piece, they can make an offer before I put it up tomorrow.

Then I decided to make matching eggs, not sure about these. One is a bit off, so will think about it.

Of course the eggs made me want to try more in a different design, so I made up some smaller ones.Now that I see the churches, I need to play with the threads, some are in the others, so I use a blunt needle to fluff them back in place. I like the chickens, they came out nicely and a fun design. Tempted to keep those for me;)

So, what do you think? Would you buy any of these items? What ones are your favorites? What kind of designs would you like to see on eggs?
